We had such a fun time on our Colorado Springs food tour with Beth. She was an awesome guide—easy to talk to and full of great stories about the city’s history and local folklore. The food was delicious, especially the veggie tacos and the coconut mojito. Downtown looked beautiful with all the holiday lights, which made the whole experience even better. As a local, this was a great addition to our holiday plans and a really enjoyable way to spend the day. Would definitely recommend.
